Prestige is something that is influenced by specific things. The war horse you see in front of you is an example.
Seeing Black Mudan move Niu Youdao out, the three elders looked at each other and didn't know what to say. The three factions also told them to follow Niu Youdao's orders.
But then again, with Niu Youdao's influence on the three factions, it was difficult for them to object, but they still didn't take the woman Hei Mudan seriously. They gave Black Mudan face because of Niu Youdao. face.
They also knew Black Mudan's origins. He was just a casual cultivator who was begging in Star Reaching City. If he hadn't followed Niu Youdao, he wouldn't even be qualified to stand in front of them. Such a threat in public without giving face made the people of the three sects somewhat feel a little bit. uncomfortable.
"Kill? Who can you kill? Black Mudan, if it is really Niu Youdao's order, we have nothing to say. However, we have cut off contact with the outside world. You are the one who is talking about everything. Is it really Niu Youdao's order? We don't know what it means, so you'd better not give random orders!" Wu Shaohuan warned.
He knew that the other party was unlikely to cheat, but he wanted to save some face in front of his disciples.
Gongsun Bu hurriedly said: "Elder Wu, the message is being passed on to me. I can prove that it is indeed what the Taoist meant."
Black Mudan was holding back her anger, but she still said politely: "You all only see the war horses in front of you, but you don't know how much effort I have put in outside. How can it be so easy to get the war horses out of Qi State?" I may have gone through some hardships, but we just don’t know. There is a reason why Master Dao gave such an order. When things have reached this point, no one wants to see any more accidents, and I definitely don’t want to see Master Dao’s hard work. I'm sorry. If there's anything I said that I didn't like, please forgive me. Let's take the war horses back first as ordered by Master Tao. If you have any opinions on me, I'll apologize to you all when we get back. Now I still have to apologize. We look forward to your full cooperation!”
She relented, and Wu Shaohuan and others walked down the steps without saying anything else.
After that, the three sects of disciples quickly deployed their manpower.
The people in front of them were not the only ones who came. Basically, the manpower sent by the three factions to Qi State had gathered, and most of the hundreds of people were still waiting on the sea.
The three ships on Lu Lijun's side were originally cut off from the rear, but after they were changed, they became the leading ones. The disciples assigned by the three factions spread all the way to the following fleet...
There was a ditch. Niu Youdao jumped directly over it with his horse. After landing, there was a trail of smoke and dust and he continued to move forward. The four riders behind him followed suit.
Under the stars and the moon, and under the blazing sun, the five people in disguise were galloping almost non-stop on the vast grassland.
Except for changing places to ride, or occasionally eating and drinking, the five people drove the horses and kept running wildly, all the way.
Niu Youdao knew very well that as long as people were still on the ground in Qi State, the danger was there, but as long as they reached the vast sea, it would not be so easy to find him again.
Even if he found it, he knew the skills he practiced. As long as he got into the water, he would have a higher chance of encountering danger and escaping. It would not be that easy to kill him. Zhuo Chao died, and he probably figured out the reason for it afterwards.
Therefore, he could not stop on the way, and he had to rush to the sea as soon as possible to rendezvous with the fleet.
"It's so dirty. Find a place for me to wash it off!"
Guan Fangyi, who loves to be clean, would complain from time to time, but Niu Youdao ignored it and insisted on traveling as soon as possible.
On this trip, Wuqi will almost cross most of Qi's territory, a long and long journey...
Among the white clouds, the sound of the piano in the pavilions and pavilions suddenly stopped. Su Zhao, who was sitting next to the piano, raised his head and said in surprise: "Niu Youdao was arrested by the court?"
Qin Mian nodded: "There is indeed a rumor outside that he, Linghu Qiu and the people from Fufangyuan were secretly arrested by people from the imperial court at the same time."
Su Zhao stood up and asked, "Is this possible?"
Qin Mian: "This possibility cannot be ruled out. After all, both of them disappeared at the same time. Also, based on the above analysis, it is indeed unlikely that Niu Youdao knew Linghuqiu's identity before. Otherwise, if he knew about this danger, , it is impossible for Linghuqiu to stay with him for so long, and there are only a handful of people in the organization who know Linghuqiu's identity. There is no possibility of leaking the secret. Linghuqiu has never done anything by his side. The identity leak. After learning this news, the higher-ups have every reason to believe that it is indeed possible that the court arrested the two of them for unknown reasons!"
Hearing this, Su Zhao secretly complained. Shao Pingbo had long guessed Linghuqiu's identity. Shao Pingbo had also long concluded that Niu Youdao had probably also known Linghuqiu's identity. This person thought that Niu Youdao was impossible. Let the danger stay with you, but Niu Youdao did just that!
However, she couldn't tell the truth, otherwise the higher-ups would definitely hold her accountable. If she had known it earlier, why not tell her
She doesn't know now how big of a deal Linghu Qiu's matter involves. It's really difficult to describe.
She regrets a little now. She regrets not communicating with Shao Pingbo in time. She shouldn't have done anything without telling Shao Pingbo. What is the above analysis? Only now did she realize that Shao Pingbo should be the one who could compete with Niu Youdao. If Shao Pingbo had grasped the situation in time, Niu Youdao would not be able to trick everyone so easily.
"What does it mean?" Su Zhao asked.
Qin Mian: "The above means that we should immediately gather our eyes and ears here in the capital to find out possible places of detention, and then wait for an opportunity to take action!"
Su Zhao: "Have most of the manpower been sent out to search for Niu Youdao's whereabouts?"
Qin Mian: "Here in the capital, those who can find out where they are being held are of little use. Those who are simply fighting and killing people are of little use. Just withdraw the relevant people who are related to the government. In this way, there is no need to withdraw them all. It’s like being prepared!”
Su Zhao was now almost certain that Niu Youdao was behind the scenes, and he most likely knew that Xiaoyue Pavilion was going to deal with him. He couldn't help but secretly cursed Niu Youdao for being insidious. This was obviously to contain Xiaoyue Pavilion's pursuit force, or at least to Distract Xiaoyue Pavilion's energy and gain more hope for escape!
She immediately found a reason to stop her, "If Niu Youdao really leaves, those who can use official connections will be better able to find Niu Youdao's whereabouts. Otherwise, if you blindly search everywhere, what is the difference between this vast prairie and finding a needle in a haystack? Besides, Okay, is this going back and forth appropriate?"
Qin Mian: "My boss, are you questioning the decision made by the superiors? Don't the superiors understand your concerns? So what if he runs away, where can he go? Unless he never shows up for the rest of his life! What if he returns to Qingshan County? If the higher ups want to touch him, can Tianyumen protect him?"
"..." Su Zhao was speechless.
In the inner courtyard of the tofu restaurant, money is being divided!
The accountant of the Huyan family has arrived and is leading people to check the books.
Hu Yanwei inevitably came, but he was not interested in this thing. He didn't have a share in the big head anyway, and he believed that his share would not be missing from the family.
Yuan Gang was not very interested in this thing, so he sat aside and watched from a distance. Hu Yanwei was beside him, chattering non-stop, talking about nonsense that Yuan Gang was not interested in.
After going back and forth, Hu Yanwei brought the topic to Niu Youdao, saying that he was not a person who kept his word. He agreed to take Niu Youdao to play among the white clouds, but Niu Youdao left. This promise can only be owed temporarily.
Then he lamented there, saying that Niu Youdao had taken away the matchmaker, and that many people in the capital lamented that the matchmaker's flower had finally been picked.
Hu Yanwei boasted again, saying that he was still discerning, and the person he was optimistic about was indeed right, otherwise how could he abduct the matchmaker and so on.
Yuan Gang fell into silence. He knew more than Hu Yanwei. Before Niu Youdao left, he had asked the tofu seller below to bring him a letter as a farewell! It was just in case. I was afraid that he would get confused after hearing the wrong news, so I specifically reminded him not to take it seriously if he heard that Niu Youdao was arrested...
Until the accounts were settled and Hu Yanwei said hello and left, Yuan Gang was still sitting on the stone slab under the eaves and had not recovered.
Master Dao really left Qi Jing! He knew what Master Dao's departure meant this time. They were two people, brothers in one life for so many years, and this time the two brothers finally parted ways!
He took the initiative to ask for separation, because that sentence made him "go behind the scenes."
He understood that Master Dao was a rational person, and there was nothing wrong with what Master Dao said, and it was also for his own good, but he couldn't explain how he felt!
After leaving the tofu restaurant and standing by the lake, I still felt uneasy.
A small boat sailed by in front of his eyes, and Yuan Gang suddenly stretched out his hand to say hello, "Boatman!"
When the boat docked, he got on the boat, threw a silver coin to the boatman, and the boat carried him away...
When we got ashore again, it was already evening, and they arrived at the back door among the white clouds.
Not long after the boat left, Su Zhao arrived.
When she heard that Yuan Gang suddenly came to see her, she was a little surprised and came to greet him in person.
Qin Mian did not show up. This was the time when business in Baiyunjian was busy, and Qin Mian needed to greet some distinguished guests.
"What brought Brother An here? Please come in!" Su Zhao held up his sleeves and invited him in.
Yuan Gang entered the door without saying a word, as if he had arrived at his own home. He just walked his own way, and he still remembered the way here.
Su Zhao followed quickly, not knowing what he wanted to do.
What made Su Zhao confused was that Yuan Gang actually came directly to her boudoir and pushed the door open without her consent.
"Have you had dinner? Shall I have someone prepare some food and wine for you?" Su Zhao tried to ask after looking at his expression.
Yuan Gang stood there silently without saying a word.
Su Zhao tried to ask again: "Are you worried? Did something happen? If you have something, you might as well tell me and see if I can help. I will help if I can. That's not right, you have the Huyan family behind you. In this capital, who dares not to give some face to the Huyan family..."
Before she finished speaking, she was stunned and looked down at her hand. Yuan Gang, who was facing her, suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand.
Before she could raise her head, Yuan Gang suddenly pulled her into his arms and held her tightly.
"Boss An..." Su Zhao looked up, Yuan Gang lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
Su Zhao stared at the boss, shocked!
This man's strong arms were so powerful, and he was still hesitating in his mind whether to expose his cultivation and resist.
However, this thought soon turned into confusion and infatuation. Inexplicably, the masculine aura of this man made her tremble physically and mentally. She felt weak in her arms and legs, as if she had met the destined king, who was destined to make her submissive and conquer her. !
Uh-huh! Yuan Gang tore off her clothes, and the beauty was instantly revealed...
